Husker fans are still buzzing over what many consider a terrible call late in last Saturday's game with Maryland. Because of that play and the continued ineffective play by the Husker QBs, there also have been calls for the dismissal of first year Husker Offensive Coordinator, Marcus Satterfield. I've already opined on the RPO play Rhule/Satterfield called on third and goal with about three minutes to go in the game. The score was tied at 10. Instead of playing it safe with a run, Husker third string QB Chubba Purdy was given a run/pass option. Maybe Rhule and/or Satterfield should have told P...

Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield said he understands fans' frustration with the team's quarterback play, but he preached patience during Tuesday's post-practice press conference. "We may not be playing at an elite level right now," he said, "but y'all don't see what I see as far as how they come to work and the energy that they practice with and the preparation that they do. The teammates they are. It's really cool. This group is getting better and better and better, and our best days are ahead of us and I think they're coming soon. I can't wait to see all this come to fruitio...

Nebraska football is coming off a 31-14 win over Purdue, improving to 5-3 and inching another step closer to its first bowl birth since 2016. The Huskers have won five of their last six games and have now won three straight for the first time since 2016. I've gotten several emails about the current state of the program, so I decided to pick a couple out that I've edited for succinctness and give my thoughts. Do you think Nebraska can win the West? - Marcus (St. Louis, Mo.)Let's take a cue from head coach Matt Rhule and just try and go 1-0 this Saturday against Michigan State. With this offense...

Suddenly minus three starters on the offensive line, Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield isn't bringing out the crying towel. "I'm good with where we're going up front," Satterfield said after Tuesday morning's practice. "We'll be just fine as long as we stay healthy with who we've got up there right now. We'll continue to be physical. We'll continue to run the football." Head coach Matt Rhule announced Monday that Turner Corcoran and Ethan Piper had suffered season-ending injuries. Also, Nouredin Nouili will miss Saturday's game against Purdue at the very least. "We got good you...

Players and coaches alike hope a rugged Sunday night practice in lieu of the usual walk-through helped with the Huskers' mindset after Saturday's poor showing against Michigan. "I've never seen that before where Coach just sprung that on them on a Sunday," Nebraska football defensive coordinator Tony White said Tuesday. "And they had probably one of their better practices ever in pads." "We needed that," said center Ben Scott. "We just needed the physicality. We needed to play for each other and just go out there and do our thing." White said the defense's performance in the 45-7 loss Saturday...

Just in case any Nebraska football fans needed a reminder of how wide the talent gap is between this team and the nation's elite, Michigan provided a definitive answer. My email was flooded with concerns and critiques on Sunday, so I decided to pick three that I've edited for succinctness and give my two cents. Even before injuries and the portal depleted the room, my biggest concern with recruiting was running back. Will they add more than just one in the offseason? - Mark (Fayetteville, N.C.)What a difference a few months can make, right? Heading into spring, Nebraska had three running backs...

Nebraska quarterback Jeff Sims appears on track to return to game action. Whether that happens this weekend against Louisiana Tech or sometime later is not yet known. During Tuesday's practice, Sims "probably got 50-55 percent of the reps," said Marcus Satterfield, the Huskers' offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. "We did a little team compete period," Satterfield said. "I called some stuff where he had to keep the ball and run, and he did a nice job with that." Sims injured an ankle Sept. 9 against Colorado and sat out the Sept. 16 game against Northern Illinois. Heinrich Haarbarg st...

When Trev Alberts hired Matt Rhule following a sixth straight losing season for Husker football, I don't think any reasonable fan expected an immediate turnaround. This program needed to be stripped down to the studs and rebuilt from its foundation. At the time, I felt Nebraska's athletic director had brought in the perfect coach to undertake that construction. I still do. This thing is going to take time though, folks. That realization might be a little hard to accept for some fans who — once again — got drunk off Kool-Aid this offseason. I guess I can't really fault some Husker fans for bein...

Nebraska quarterback Jeff Sims, hobbled by an ankle injury during last weekend's loss at Colorado, was on track to return to practice Wednesday evening. Whether he plays in Saturday's home opener against Northern Illinois has yet to be decided. "He'll be out there tonight and go as full speed as he possibly can," offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield said before Wednesday's practice. Asked about the criteria for allowing Sims to play against Northern Illinois, Satterfield replied, "That's more of a Coach Rhule question than my question. But it's the kid's health first before we put him out ...

Nebraska sits at 0-2 and finds itself in a position where it needs to win six of its remaining 10 games to reach a bowl game for the first time since the 2016 season. To do that, the Huskers will need to win at least four conference games, something else they haven't done since 2016. The blame falls squarely on the shoulders of an offense that has lacked cohesion and has failed to demonstrate any kind of identity. When Matt Rhule put his staff together, I highlighted three coaches who I was skeptical of - at least initially. I've softened my stance a bit on wide receivers coach Garret McGuire....
